He raised his head towards him-and he did so because the man was standing and said: Who fights that the word of Allah be exalted fights in the way of Allah.

'Adi bin Hatim reported: I said: Messenger of Allah, I set off trained dogs and they catch for me (the game) and I recite the came of Allah over it (I slaughter the game by reciting Bismillah-i-Allah-o-Akbar), whereupon he said: When you set off your trained dogs and you recited the name of Allah (while setting them off), then eat (the game). I said: Even if them (the trained dogs) kill that (the game)? He (the Holy Prophet) said: Even if these kill, but (on the condition) that no other dog, which you did not set off (along with your dogs), participates (in catching the game). I said to him: I throw Mi'rad, a heavy featherless blunt arrow, for hunting and killing (the game). Thereupon he said: When you throw Mi'rad, and it pierces, then eat, but if it falls flatly (and beats the game to death), then do not eat that.

She (Hadrat 'A'isha) said: He forbade us, the members of his family, to prepare Nabidh in gourd, or varnished jar. I said to him: Do you remember green pitcher, and pitcher?

Thereupon 'Abdullah said: Should I not curse one upon whom Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) has invoked curse and that is in the Book also. Thereupon that woman said: I read the Qur'an from cover to cover, but I did not find that in it. whereupon he said: If you had read (thoroughly) you would have definitely found this in that (as) Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, has said:" What Allah's Messenger brings for you accept that. and what he has forbidden you. refrain from that." That woman said: I find this thing in your wife even now. Thereupon he said: Go and see her. She reported: I went to the wife of 'Abdullah but found nothing of this sort in her.

He lowered his head and began to scratch the earth with his stick, and then said: There is not one amongst you whom a spot in Paradise or Hell has not been allotted and about whom it has not been written down whether he would be an evil person or a blessed person. A person said: Allah's Messenger, should we not then depend upon our destiny and abandon our deeds? Thereupon he said: Acts of everyone will be facilitated in that which has been created for him so that whoever belongs to the company of the blessed will have good works made easier for him and whoever belongs to the unfortunate ones will have evil acts made easier for him. He then recited this verse (from the Qur'an): "Then, who gives to the needy and guards against evil and accepts the excellent (the truth of Islam and the path of righteousness it prescribes), We shall make easy for him the easy end and who is miserly and considers himself above need, We shall make easy for him the difficult end".

I retreat unto Thee for protection with hope in Thee and fear of Thee. There is no resort and no deliverer (from hardship) but Thou only. I affirm my faith in Thine books which Thou revealed and in Thine Apostles whom Thou sent." Make this as the last word of yours (when you go to sleep) and in case you die during that night, you would die upon Fitra (upon Islam). And as I repeated these words in order to commit them to memory, I said: "I affirm my faith in Thy Messenger (Rasul) whom Thou sent." He said: Say: "I affirm my faith in the Apostle (ﷺ) (Nabi) whom Thou sent."

Farwa' bin Naufal Ashja'i reported: I asked: 'A'isha, in what words did Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) supplicate Allah? She said that he used to utter: "I seek refuge in Thee from the evil of what I did and from the evil of what I did not."

The other one said: He does hear when we speak loudly and He does not hear when we speak in undertones, and still the other one said: If He listens when we speak loudly, He also listens when we speak in undertones. It was on this occasion that this verse was revealed: "You did not conceal yourselves lest your ears, your eyes and your skins would stand witness against you" (xli. 22).

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of 'Abdullah through another chain of transmitters.

'Abdullah bin Mas'ud reported that a Jew scholar came to Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) (may peace he upon him) and said. Muhammad, or Abu al-Qasim, verify, Allah, the Exalted and Glorious. Would carry the Heavens on the Day of Judgment upon one finger and earths upon one finger and the mountains and trees upor one finger and the ocean and moist earth upon one finger-in fact the whole of the creation upon one finger, and then He would stir them and say: I am your Lord, I am your Lord. Thereupon Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) smiled testifying what that scholar had said. He then recited this verse:" And they honour not Allah with the honour due to Him; and the whole earth will be in His grip on the Day of Resurrection and the heavens will be rolled up up in His right hand. Glory be to Him and highly Exalted is He above what they associate (with Him)" (xxxix. 67).

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Mansur with the same chain of transmitters (and the words are): A Jew scholar came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) . The rest of the hadith is the same, but there is no mention of "then He would stir them." But there is this addition: "I saw Allah's Messengcr (ﷺ) smiling so much that his front teeth appeared and testifying him (the Jew scholar); then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) recited the verse: "And they honour not Allah with the honour due to Him" (xxxix. 67).

Masruq reported: We were sitting in the company of 'Abdullah and he was lying on the bed that a person came and said: Abd Abdul Rahmin, a story-teller at the gates of Kinda says that the verse (of the Qur'an) which deals with the "smoke" implies that which is about to come and it would hold the breath of the infidels and would inflict the believers with cold. Thereupon 'Abdullah got up and said in anger. O people, fear Allah and say only that which one knows amongst you and do not say which he does not know and he should simply say: Allah has the best knowledge for He has the best knowledge amongst all of you. It does not behoove him to say that which he does not know. Allah has the best knowledge of it. Verily Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, said to His Prophet (ﷺ) to state: "I do not ask from you any remuneration and I am not the one to put you in trouble," and when Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saw people turning back (from religion) he said: O Allah, afflict them with seven famines as was done in the case of Yusuf, so they were afflicted with famine by which they were forced to eat everything until they were obliged to eat the hides and the dead bodies because of hunger, and every one of them looked towards the sky and he found a smoke. And Abu Sufyan (RA) came and he said: Muhammad, you have come to command us to obey Allah and cement the ties of blood-relation whereas your people are undone; supplicate Allah for them. Thereupon Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, said: "Wait for the day when there would be clear smoke from the sky which would envelop people and that would be grievous torment" up to the words: "you are going to return to (evil)." (if this verse implied the torment of the next life) could the chastisement of the next (life) be averted (as the Qur'an states): On the day when We seize (them) with the most violent seizing; surely We shall exact retribution" (xliv. 16)? The seizing (in the hadith) implies that of the Day of Badr. And so far as the sign of smoke, seizing, inevitability and signs of Rome are concerned, they have become things of the past now.
